Swede Lake

Swede Lake is a small (209 acre), very pretty lake located just south of Nesslin Lake.

It is accessible down a pretty steep road off of the Nesslin Lake road, keep your eyes open for the sign it's small and easy to miss.

There is a parking spot and a primitive launch at the bottom of the road. The launch is suitable for a small boat or paddlers.

There are a few small bays to explore, and it's possible to portage/walk your way into the nearby Little Nesslin Lake from the north end of Swede.

This was one of my favourite lakes to paddle!

This lake has been personally visited by myself, Matthew Siemens.

Paddled across the lake to get into Little Nesslin, very pretty little lake. There is a basic sand boat launch here suitable for small boats, but the road down to the launch is narrow and not in great shape.
